My bedtime was normally 9 on school nights, and my grandmother was working, so she was not pleased when she arrived home from work lol. Anyway, the play of one man stood out, that man of course being Brett Favre. His child-like enthusiasm resignated with my 8 year old self. I became a huge fan that very day. All the while living in Bills country (distant 2nd favorite team) in upstate NY. The Packers won said game 27-24 over the Bears.My grandfather died 3 years later, but we would watch every Packers game until heavens gates called his name. His picture hangs up on the wall behind my couch, so I like to think we still watch Packers games together to this very day. Those were some of the fondest memories I have of my grandpa. I will cherish them for the rest of my life.</blockquote>
